The Deaf Hear.
[Rutland Vt.) Review, Sept. 10, 1885. l

lhuIldllu WI review, sept. IL, 1889,
OF the hundreds or cases successfully treated
by Drs. Severance & Royce during their stay
here, our personal attention has been directed to
number; but perhaps none of them is more
wonderful than that Of the twelve-years old
daughter of Mrs. Ellen Davis of North Chester
VT From early infancy this child has been very
delicate, and was long sufferer from catarrh of
very distressing and obstinate nature causing
at times enlargement of the tonsls to that degree
that it was with difficulty she could swallow solid
food. The child has always been deaf-in later
years 1t being almost impossible to make her
hear anything. The child was put under treat
ment from Drs. Severance & Royce, not, how
ever, until physicians had expressed the opinion
that there was no help for her. FROM private
letter from Mrs. Davis we quote.as follows:
Last May my attention was attracted to the
advertisement of Drs. Severance & Royce and
determined to make one more effort, having
however, little faith that she would receive any
benefit. The result is truly astonishing. She is
now healthy child, can bear exposure to all
kinds of weather, and is entirely cured OF all
deafness. Everyone who sees her remarks on
her improved appearance, and regards it as
simply wonderful that such change should take
place in so short time. would advise all who
are similarly afflicted to consult these physicians
without delay"
This case is more remarkable in that the child
was deaf almost from birth, and it was more a
constitutional difficulty than local. Drs Sever
ance Royce have had remarkable success in
the treatment of deafness, and they have in all
chronic objections; and so long as they are here
all sufferers should take advantage of the visit
and consult them

4 Wonderfully Successful
Treatment.

In the history of medical science, there is no
physician who has done more for the alienation
of human suffering and the cure of disease than
DR.. Royce, Receiving his thorough medical ed
ucatiOn in the best medical colleges in the land,
he early became convinced that the mode of
treating disease by means of poisonous drugs
always resulted in injury to the system. He
therefore turned his study and investigation to
the harmless vegetable remedies in the labOra-
tory of NATURE. After graduating and receiv-
ing his medical diplomas, he further pushed his
investigations in the treatment of diseases by
etable remedies, twice visiting the hospitals of
Europe in order to prosecute his research among
the methods of treatment in the OLD WORLD.
Life being too short for physician to learn all
there is in the vast science of medicine he has
made the study and investigation of the treat
ment of one class of disease-the cure of long
standing cOmplaints-a life work; and the result
is certainly marvellous Vegetable remedies were
discovered for different diseases, which were
wonderful in their effects. Thousands of cases
of chronic diseases given up as incurable by
other physicians, were restored to sound and

4 Certain Cure for all Forms Of
Chronic Diseases.

Health and disease are physical conditions
upon which depend pleasure or pain, content
ment or unhappiness, success or failure. Health
Is essential to the accomplishment of every pur-
pose, while sickness thwarts the best intentions
and loftieSt aims; hence people cannot afford to
be sick. The human being is the browning work
of the Creator; and when this complicated struc-
ture, so exquisitely wrought is disturbed by dis
ease, the most sufficient aid should be sought
from the most skilled physician, for the human
body is too precious to be neglected.
No physician can be equally skilled in all forms
OF disease, and no one in the common every day
practice of medicine can possibly compound the
necessary remedial agents to cure chronic or
lingering diseases. DR.. E. w. Royce of Boston,
now at the Morrisville House, Morrisville. Vt,
has met public need and is a great benefactOr
to the sick.
His means are so ample and his resources so
abundant, that he is enabled, in almost all cases
of chronic Diseases to effect a perfect and COM
plete cure by means of HARMLESS VEGE-

clans and his case given up as hopeless, cured in
less than three months by Dr. Royce. Here are
his own words for it:

The object in publishing this in these columns
is to furnish to those afflicted with chronic or
long-standng diseases, such reliable information
as will enable them TO determine the true char
acter OF their disease, and the best means to be
adopted for cure. 1t is a fact which the COM
munity have been made to bitterly realize, that
ordinary physicians do not cure chronic diseases ;
and it is only just and right that the reason
should be explained for this lack of success on
the part of the physician to cure this, by far the
largest class of diseases.
Years of study and observation demonstrate
that the real cause of this failure to cure lies in
the fact that physicians of all schools of practice
use i'll their treatment of disease poisonous drugs
which not only do not and cannot cure, but are
positive injury to the system. The Injurious
effects of these drugs are made apparent every
day, in the weak and deblitated condition of
mind and body, the shattered nervous system
with persons rise from fevers or other acute dis
eases, in the rapid increase of invalidism, and
sudden and ineXplicable deaths, many of the
deaths from heart or brain disease many of the
cases of Indigestion, kidney and liver complaints
are directly the result of the action of strong
poisonous medicine.
Professor VanDucen of Paris, in commenting
upon this subject says: I'VE cannot accept the
theory that poison which we know will injure
or kill well person is going to prove curative
and health giving when given to one who is sick
We believe that science and common sense
should go hand in hand; and it is certainly not
common sense to say that a deadly poison can
under any circumstances, be beneficial or cura
tive.
60 1t is for this reason that we accept so fully
the theory of Dr. Royce of Boston, Mass. The
Doctor believes that all poiSons are injurious to
the system. The Doctor has furnished all the
harmless remedies necessary to cure all forms of
disease. Acting upon this theory he discards all
poisonous drugs, and by study and deep research
has developed system of curing diseases, eSpe-
cially those Of a chronic or lOng-standing FORM
by the use of harmless vegetable remedies, which
are cleansing, purifying, and invigOrating.
This is not mere theory, but an established
fact; and the Doctors remarkable cures of eases
of disease, in many instances where all hope was
lost and the case given up as incurabe by physi-
clans of eminence, demonstrate that he is upon
the right track. We are constantly meeting peO-
pie who have been restored to health by this
treatment; and the Doctors fame is not local

ave speak strongly, because we know where
of we speak. We have seen cases of chronic
diseases fade and sink under treatment by pois
OnOus drugs; and have seen the same 1nvalds,
under the use of these vegetable remedies, gain
rapidly until perfect and permanent health was
restored We believe this theory and practice Of
medicine an advance i'm the right direction, and
we predicted from the first that the people would
readily see its truth and accept the wonderful
benefits of its practice. And the result has GER
tainly borne out predictions, for thousands of
sufferers from chronic diseases have been cured
by these remedies; and, from the many constant
ly applying for treatment, we are satisfied that a
new era in medical history has begun-an era IN
which the sick may be relieved from their ills
without being dOsed with poisonous drugs which
are often dangerous and always of more or less
iniury tO the System,"

A Case Of Spinal Disease Cured.

Mrs Celia GOsselin, who resides on Centre
Street, was for two years afflicted with spinal
disease, and was unable to do anything much of
he time, and was unable to leave her bed. Dur
ing the two years of her illness she constantly
employed physicians, but one and all pronounced
her case incurable She was reduced in flesh
almost to a skeleton, and was hopeless and dis
cOuraged. 1t was in this condition that she call
ed on DIR. Royce to consult with him, and after
being treated by him two months she is able to
do her own work and is robust and healthy She
called on us and stated the above facts which
we corrobOrated by inquiry into the case, and
wished us to publicly acknowledge her gratitude
to this physician for the relief he has brought
her, and to add to those already published her
recommend of Dr.. ROyce's methods and treatment
to other afflicted ones. DIR. Royce informs us
that the case of Mrs. GOsselin was a very prom
ising one and when he first began did not promise
her Il cure, but thought he could relieve her in a
considerable degree. The success which attend
ed her treatment is therefore no less gratifying
to him than to the patient.-RlGtldnd RerietC

ton, then, what physician shall we employ?
Physicians cannot be equally skilled in the treat
ment of all classes OF diseases.
The common doctor, even though he has the
inclination has neither the time nor the facilities
to give the study to the treatment of chronic
complaints, which is absolutely necessary to
understand their complications and their cure.
He has not seen a case like yours; he feels he

he is too proud to tell you that he knows nothing
about the case, and so he experiments with his
